Site Shut Down

So, how is the old guy's Happy Valley stay going?

Funny you should say that...it was only about 180 secs ago I said to Corrine "I NEED A BREAK" ...we only just fixed the last of the known issues from the server move about 20mins ago so all should be starting to look good

So you have fixed the known knowns, and most of the unknown knowns. All that remains is to fix the remainder of the unknown knowns and all of the unknown unknowns.....

Happy Valley awaits........

and from the contents select which browser you are using...best to do when not on this site but what you usually use as your home page

Ok, I think I can put this to rest now...the new server is performing magnificently and is extremely fast. I found one table on the Aircraft Pilots site that got corrupted with the move but was able to fix that very easily.

 

So what we have ended up with is a new server spec'd with:

 

Processor: Intel Xeon E5-1650 (12 cores hyperthreading)

 

Memory: 16 DDR3-1600 ECC RAM

 

Hard Drives: 2x300GB Intel 320 SSD in RAID1, 1x1TB SATA II Backup disk

 

Bandwidth: 1TB Premium Transfer

 

IP Addresses: /29 (5 useable IPs)

 

Port Speed: 100mbps

 

Location: LA, USA

 

We are now using Percona as the database which is better suited to innoDB tables, which we use, compared to mySQL

 

Advanced site searching using ElasticSearch tuned to the site

 

We are also using a better cacheing system called memcache (we use to use APC)

 

At the time of writing this we have Load Averages of only 0.02 0.03 0.00...This means the server isn't even idling so it is ready for some great things

 

DNS should be propagated around the internet now so when users type in www.recreationalflying.com they should come straight to the new server

 

The only thing left to do is the video/audio/text Chat Room...this will take a while as I am getting this enhanced so the one Chat Room can be used across ALL sites like Rec Flying, Aircraft Pilots, Clear Prop etc plus I would like to incorporate Instant 1 to 1 Chat with it.

 

Time now to focus on the site itself and its update...sorry to everyone for the inconvenience that this server migration has caused...fly safe!
